Security Fixes
Removed the check for regex.h in configure in order to disable
regex syntax checking, as it exposes BIND to a critical flaw in
libregex on some platforms. [CVE-2013-2266] [RT #32688]
https://kb.isc.org/article/AA-00871 (bnc#811876)
Prevents named from aborting with a require assertion failure
on servers with DNS64 enabled. These crashes might occur as a
result of specific queries that are received. (Note that this
fix is a subset of a series of updates that will be included in
full in BIND 9.8.5 and 9.9.3 as change #3388, RT #30996).
[CVE-2012-5688] [RT #30792]
A deliberately constructed combination of records could cause
named to hang while populating the additional section of a
response. [CVE-2012-5166] [RT #31090]
Prevents a named assert (crash) when queried for a record whose
RDATA exceeds 65535 bytes. [CVE-2012-4244] [RT #30416]
Prevents a named assert (crash) when validating caused by using
"Bad cache" data before it has been initialized. [CVE-2012-3817]
[RT #30025]
A condition has been corrected where improper handling of
zero-length RDATA could cause undesirable behavior, including
termination of the named process. [CVE-2012-1667] [RT #29644]
ISC_QUEUE handling for recursive clients was updated to address
a race condition that could cause a memory leak. This rarely
occurred with UDP clients, but could be a significant problem
for a server handling a steady rate of TCP queries. [CVE-2012-3868]
[RT #29539 & #30233]
New Features
Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm keys and signatures
in DNSSEC are now supported per RFC 6605. [RT #21918]
Introduces a new tool "dnssec-checkds" command that checks a
zone to determine which DS records should be published in the
parent zone, or which DLV records should be published in a DLV
zone, and queries the DNS to ensure that it exists. (Note: This
tool depends on python; it will not be built or installed on
systems that do not have a python interpreter.) [RT #28099]
Introduces a new tool "dnssec-verify" that validates a signed
zone, checking for the correctness of signatures and NSEC/NSEC3
chains. [RT #23673]
Adds configuration option "max-rsa-exponent-size <value>;" that
can be used to specify the maximum rsa exponent size that will
be accepted when validating [RT #29228]
Feature Changes
Improves OpenSSL error logging [RT #29932]
nslookup now returns a nonzero exit code when it is unable to
get an answer. [RT #29492]
Bug Fixes
When using DNSSEC inline signing with "rndc signing -nsec3param",
a salt value of "-" can now be used to indicate 'no salt'. [RT #30099]
Prevents race conditions (address use after free) that could be
encountered when named is shutting down and releasing structures
used to manage recursive clients. [RT #30241]
Static-stub zones now accept "forward" and "fowarders" options
(often needed for subdomains of the zone referenced to override
global forwarding options). These options are already available
with traditional stub zones and their omission from zones of
type "static-stub" was an inadvertent oversight. [RT #30482]
Limits the TTL of signed RRsets in cache when their RRSIGs are
approaching expiry. This prevents the persistence in cache of
invalid RRSIGs in order to assist recovery from a situation where
zone re-signing doesn't occur in a timely manner. With this
change, named will attempt to obtain new RRSIGs from the
authoritative server once the original ones have expired, and
even if the TTL of the old records would in other circumstances
cause them to be kept in cache for longer. [RT #26429]
Corrects the syntax of isc_atomic_xadd() and isc_atomic_cmpxchg()
which are employed on Itanium systems to speed up lock management
by making use of atomic operations. Without the syntax correction
it is possible that concurrent access to the same structures
could accidentally occur with unpredictable results. [RT #25181]
Improves OpenSSL error logging [RT #29932]
The configure script now supports and detects libxml2-2.8.x
correctly [RT #30440]
The host command should no longer assert on some architectures
and builds while handling the time values used with the -w (wait
forever) option. [RT #18723]
Invalid zero settings for max-retry-time, min-retry-time,
max-refresh-time, min-refresh-time will now be detected during
parsing of named.conf and an error emitted instead of triggering
an assertion failure on startup. [RT #27730]
Removes spurious newlines from log messages in zone.c [RT #30675]
When built with readline support (i.e. on a system with readline
installed) nsupdate no longer terminates unexpectedly in interactive
mode. [RT #29550]
All named tasks that perform task-exclusive operations now share
the same single task. Prior to this change, there was the
possibility of a race condition between rndc operations and other
functions such as re-sizing the adb hash table. If the race
condition was encountered, named would in most cases terminate
unexpectedly with an assert. [RT #29872]
Ensures that servers are expired from the ADB cache when the
timeout limit is reached so that their learned attributes can
be refreshed. Prior to this change, servers that were frequently
queried might never have their entries removed and reinitialized.
This is of particular importance to DNSSEC-validating recursive
servers that might erroneously set "no-edns" for an authoritative
server following a period of intermittent connectivity. [RT
[#29856]]
Adds additional resilience to a previous security change (3218)
by preventing RRSIG data from being added to cache when a
pseudo-record matching the covering type and proving non-existence
exists at a higher trust level. The earlier change prevented
this inconsistent data from being retrieved from cache in response
to client queries - with this additional change, the RRSIG
records are no longer inserted into cache at all. [RT #26809]
dnssec-settime will now issue a warning when the writing of a
new private key file would cause a change in the permissions of
the existing file. [RT #27724]
Fixes the defect introduced by change #3314 that was causing
failures when saving stub zones to disk (resulting in excessive
CPU usage in some cases). [RT #29952]
Address race condition in units tests: asyncload_zone and
asyncload_zt. [RT #26100]
It is now possible to using multiple control keys again - this
functionality was inadvertently broken by change #3924 (RT #28265)
which addressed a memory leak. [RT #29694]
Named now holds a zone table reference while performing an
asynchronous load of a zone. This removes a race condition that
could cause named to crash when zones are added using rndc addzone
or by manually editing named's configuration file followed by
rndc reconfig/reload. [RT #28326]
Setting resolver-query-timeout too low could cause named problems
recovering after a loss of connectivity. [RT #29623]
Reduces the potential build-up of stale RRsets in cache on a
busy recursive nameserver by re-using cached DS and RRSIG rrsets
when possible [RT #29446]
Corrects a failure to authenticate non-existence of resource
records in some circumstances when RPZ has been configured.
Also:
- adds an optional "recursive-only yes|no" to the response-policy
statement
- adds an optional "max-policy-ttl" to the response-policy
statement to limit the false data that "recursive-only no"
can introduce into resolvers' caches
- introduces a predefined encoding of PASSTHRU policy by adding
"rpz-passthru" to be used as the target of CNAME policy records
(the old encoding is still accepted.)
- adds a RPZ performance test to bin/tests/system/rpz when
queryperf is available.
[RT #26172]
Upper-case/lower-case handling of RRSIG signer-names is now
handled consistently: RRSIG records are generated with the
signer-name in lower case. They are accepted with any case, but
if they fail to validate, we try again in lower case. [RT #27451]
* Tue Mar 26 2013 lmuelle@suse.com
- Update the IPv4 address of the D root name server.
* Thu Dec 06 2012 meissner@suse.com
- Updated to 9.9.2-P1 (bnc#792926)

BIND 9.9 changes the default storage format for slave zone
files from text to raw. Because named's behavior when a slave
server cannot read or parse a zone file is to move the offending
file out of the way and retransfer the zone, slave servers
that are updated from a pre-9.9.0 version of BIND and which
have existing copies of slave zone data may wind up with
extraneous copies of zone data stored, as the existing
text-format zone file copies will be moved aside to filenames
of the format db-###### and journal files to the format
jn-###### (where # represents a hexadecimal digit.)

- Zones may be dynamically added and removed with the "rndc addzone"
and "rndc delzone" commands. These dynamically added zones are
written to a per-view configuration file. Do not rely on the
configuration file name nor contents as this will change in a
future release. This is an experimental feature at this time.
- Added new "filter-aaaa-on-v4" access control list to select which
IPv4 clients have AAAA record filtering applied.
- A new command "rndc secroots" was added to dump a combined summary
of the currently managed keys combined with statically configured
trust anchors.
- Added support to load new keys into managed zones without signing
immediately with "rndc loadkeys". Added support to link keys with
"dnssec-keygen -S" and "dnssec-settime -S".
- Documentation improvements
- ORCHID prefixes were removed from the automatic empty zone list.
- Improved handling of GSSAPI security contexts. Specifically, better
memory management of cached contexts, limited lifetime of a context
to 1 hour, and added a "realm" command to nsupdate to allow
selection of a non-default realm name.
- The contributed tool "ztk" was updated to version 1.0.
- version 9.7.1 to 9.7.2-P2

- Fully automatic signing of zones by "named".
- Simplified configuration of DNSSEC Lookaside Validation (DLV).
- Simplified configuration of Dynamic DNS, using the "ddns-confgen"
command line tool or the "local" update-policy option. (As a side
effect, this also makes it easier to configure automatic zone
re-signing.)
- New named option "attach-cache" that allows multiple views to
share a single cache.
- DNS rebinding attack prevention.
- New default values for dnssec-keygen parameters.
- Support for RFC 5011 automated trust anchor maintenance
- Smart signing: simplified tools for zone signing and key
maintenance.
- The "statistics-channels" option is now available on Windows.
- A new DNSSEC-aware libdns API for use by non-BIND9 applications
- On some platforms, named and other binaries can now print out
a stack backtrace on assertion failure, to aid in debugging.
- A "tools only" installation mode on Windows, which only installs
dig, host, nslookup and nsupdate.
- Improved PKCS#11 support, including Keyper support and explicit
OpenSSL engine selection.
- version 9.7.0
